Re: Group policy results wizard - Access denied

There could be any number of things causing this. Is it happening on more than one remote system? If so, have any security policies been changed recently? Change in SMB signing level?

Well, even though I can remotely manage the boxes, when I try to connect via the WMI Control snap-in, I get
wmi control failed to connect because win32:access denied

Again, I have searched this error until I am blue in the face with no resolutions working.

While logged on as a domain admin, we are getting Access Denied when trying to run the Group Policy Results Wizard on our WinXP SP2 systems. I can remotely manage the systems, so I think WMI is working. Also, firewalls are disabled.

Not sure when this stopped working, used to work fine. Could it be a policy setting, such as Access this computer from the network or Remotely accessible registry paths that are mucked up??


I have searched the Inet until I am blind, and no suggestion I have found has been helpful.
